The government of Liechtenstein on February 10, 2025, issued a press release announcing the adoption of the consultation report on the cryptoasset reporting framework (CARF) Act, along with amendments to the automatic exchange of financial account information (AEOI) Act and other related laws, including the FATCA Act.

The CARF Act regulates the obligations of cryptoasset service providers (CASPs) and the rights and obligations of cryptoasset users. It also addresses:

  • Transmission of information by the tax administration
  • Confidentiality, data processing, and data security
  • Applicable procedures and abuse provisions
  • Criminal provisions and cooperation between authorities

The amendment of the AEOI Act expands its scope to include digital financial products, such as specified e-money products and digital central bank currencies. It also introduces increased requirements for AEOI due diligence and reporting obligations.

The consultation period is open until April 17, 2025.
